| LOV2 2012 | BBa_K820000 | contains a photo-activable LOV2 domain which changes its conformation upon exposure to blue light (420-480 nm). |
| promoter (lacI regulated) | BBa_R0010 | In the absence of LacI protein and CAP protein this part promotes transcription. |
| RBS | BBa_B0032 | Ribosom binding site |
| T1 | BBa_B0010 | T1 from e. coli rrnB |
| TE | BBa_B0012 | Transcription terminator for the E.coli RNA polymerase |
